I’m heading into the writing cave this morning to write the first chapter of Under Strain, the second story in the upcoming Rebel Cyborgs series. I’m dang happy about doing this. I’m thrilled to pieces and have a huge smile on my face.
The Earth-based world is a bit stressful right now. I’m worried about so many things and so many people, and I’m taking care of these things and people as best as I can.
But I need breaks in order to do this. I need writing breaks and I need reading breaks.
When I write or read, I recharge. I calm down. I restore my energy levels, as my cyborgs would say. I become stronger and more capable of doing everything I need to do (which, in 2020, consists mostly of ensuring everyone survives and experiences some happiness – that’s a HUGE mission and if we’re doing that, we should consider ourselves to be tremendously successful).
Reading and me time isn’t a nice-to-have in 2020. It is essential to our health. Please don’t forgo it.

Warlord’s Return
Ariq is a barbarian warrior seeking a war.
He locates that battle when he meets Xareni.
* * *
Ariq is one of Chamele’s top warriors. A genetic predisposition to fighting, paired with intensive training and experience, has honed the scarred male into an effective killing machine. He loves war, can’t live without combat.
The Succession Wars, however, have finally ended and the Chamele sector is now at peace. Seeking excitement and purpose, the barbarian warrior accompanies his Second to the Refuge, an outlaw settlement on Carinae E. He hopes to locate the battle he’s been craving there.
Ariq finds that conflict and more when he meets his fated mate.
Xareni owes the Ruler of the Refuge a favor. That’s the only reason she has returned to the settlement. She doesn’t like crowds or structures or a certain barbarian warrior who insists on following her everywhere. It doesn’t matter that there’s a connection between them, that he makes her burn with desire, that he looks at her with heat in his dark eyes.
She’s a monster and monsters don’t need anyone.

Warlord’s Return is a STANDALONE Alien Barbarian SciFi Romance featuring a determined barbarian warrior, an equally resolute human female, and an eyeball-eating mini dragon.
